I just tried Tofurky slices for the first time, and I think I may never cook again. I'll go broke trying to keep them in stock, but damn...REAL ACTUAL DELI SLICED STUFF AND CHEEZE SANDWICHES. Heaven, I tell you, HEAVEN.

I'm having roasted chickpeas (the tamari ones from ED&BV- so good!) and kale chips. Not totally pathetic, but they're basically snacks. Also it's almost 10pm; this would never fly if I had to cook for someone else!

"Dump It In The Crockpot Chili (Because You Have Too Much Homework To Cook Real Food)" -2 cans black beans1 can corn n peppers1 can Ro-TelMix, season to taste, put on low. Eat voraciously when you get home from being in class all day.

I sometimes mix it up by serving it over rice or with cornbread. Tonight, it was just out of a bowl with some crackers.

Hell yeah! I would rinse my black beans out or cook my own, though because those things are sodium bombs.

I get the no salt added ones when I buy canned beans. I mostly cook my own though. And I do something similar to this sometimes - 1 can diced tomatoes, 1 can black beans, keep adding texas pete until it's hot enough

Yeah, I buy the low sodium canned beans. I usually do cook my own now that I know how. But in a pinch, if I have to leave for class at 10 and won't be back until 5 or later, I just use the canned stuff.

And I should add that I usually just cook/heat this on the stove, but I knew when I got back from school and had this mountain of reading to do, I would be super hungry and wouldn't want to wait for it to heat up. All five minutes that it takes, you know.

Tonight, though, I'm actually cooking *gasp* and I'm making my beloved Chickpea Quinoa Pilaf from AFR. That cookbook has given me such joy...and the recipes are so easy. Very bachelor(ette) friendly! I made the Mango BBQ Beans for my friend's birthday...his whole family loved them, and they professed to not really be into bbq beans. I subbed black beans for the kidney beans, though, and used brown sugar because I didn't have agave.

All made in quantities that would serve 6-10 people, because I don't know how to make less than that. A couple of my roommates eventually helped out a bit with the taco stuff, but there were still tons of leftovers and my freezer's getting full.

My bachelor dinner the night before that was celery, peanut butter, salt, and beer.
